Streszczenie
We consider the irreducibility of generalized Laguerre polynomials $ L_n^{(1/2+u)}(x^2)$ when $u$ is a negative integer. In 1926 Schur proved that these polynomials are irreducible when $u\in \{0,-1\}$. We study irreducibility of more general polynomials and as a consequence prove that $ L_n^{(1/2+u)}(x^2)$ are irreducible when $-18 \leq u \leq -2.$
